She's Still Gone

I wake up in the morning with my arms around my pillow

Then suddenly I realize I only hold a pillow you're not there you're not there

I call your name and hear my voice run searching through the hallway

To return alone confirming all I've known for so long I'm alone you're still gone

Still half asleep I stumble to the kitchen for my coffee

My footsteps match my heartbeats funny heartbeats on linoleum

The sounds all wrong you're still gone

The sounds outside reminding me the world won't wait forever

And understanding saves don't stand by empty graves

You're on your own all alone she's still gone
